Triumph of the Nerds
I thought the documentary was pretty interesting. I loved hearing about the start up of Bill Gates and Steve Jobs's careers and how Steve Jobs and Steve Wazniac started off in a garage. I liked Apple's approach to their work environment...layed back and california style. It was interesting to hear about the all of the details that go on behind the scenes and the competitiveness with companies. IBM seemed almost like a cult...very strange that they had a song book! I thought Steve Jobs seemed like he was very ego sentric and very bitter when he split with Apple. It blows my mind, at the creativness and intelligence the inventors of new technology posses! I thought the funniest part of the movie was toward the end when Steve Jobs made a comment that Microsoft stole ideas. Previously Steve Jobs made it clear he was interested in success and it didn't matter how he achieved it, he also quoted Picasso by saying "good artists copy, great artists steal". haha that's the pot calling the kettle black
